This post is dedicated to the people out there who find shopping foreign. I will highlight mostly dont’s with a few do’s on how to be a courteous shopper.

Just Looking
If you plan on window shopping please keep your shopping outside the store and please don’t bring in your football team size family with you. If you go into a store by yourself you count as one but when the family comes its a large group making the associate work hard to try to convert your visit into a sale. Most retail stores run on conversion, the average is 10 percent. Meaning if you visit a store with 10 of your homies to show them “the purse you got on sale”or “to just look” one of you should plan on buying something. If you really must look do it online its called window shopping for a reason, if you walk into the store you’ve past the window.

Fitting Rooms and Sizes
This relates to looking as some of you feel like you have to try things on when you are looking. Major don’t and i can’t stress that enough. if you are not planning to buy anything please do not get in the fitting rooms, or ask for shoes in multiple sizes. Also when trying on please do not bring in a size 25,26,27 and 28 as you look like a thief or crazy because you can’t possibly explain that ” I don’t know my size” what are you 12? Figure it out at home or ask the associate in helping you find your size and please know your brands and cuts. American sizes run larger while European sizes are smaller sounds simple right? So if I see you at Rock and Republic one more time screaming ” this doesn’t fit , I wear a size 2 at Gap” I may strangle you.

“Nothing Fits” or “Nothing didn’t work today”
Pay attention stupid girls you know who you are. The ” Oh My God I need to loose weight nothing fits” bitch you knew this information before your hefty ass left the house its not like walking around with an extra 15 pounds isn’t noticeable. The “None of the 4′s fit” and refuse to go up a size. What’s your issue if you wanna wear a size 4 all the time do yourself a favor and either keep your fingers down your throat or stay your ass at Gap. And please please please do not throw the merchandise on the floor, think about the people who have to try it on after you.
